Just a general thread about running. How’s your running going? What are you training for? Did you get new shoes? Sporting an injury etc.

    I’m the same way. I used to run with music, but I found that I’d subconsciously adjust my pace to the beat and it would constantly throw off my rhythm.

    I like just being lost in thought and enjoying the scenery when running. I find it very meditative.

      I’m working towards that I think. I’ve done a trail run or two expecting to have music but my headphones haven’t worked, so just had the sound of my footsteps and nature - was just as you say, very meditative… Currently using a 150bpm playlist though to get to a consistent rhythm. So hopefully that’ll build and I can start running free of music.
